Griz+zlor - Heavy Masonry [Earth.Space Noise - 2009]

'Heavy Masonry' is all about creating a very thick & constant black jittering wall of evil sounding & murky static tone.  Inside the black spray paint of black plastic case Griz+zlor offers up just over twenty minutes of grim, nihilistic yet rewarding ‘wall’ making.

The tracks ‘wall’ is built around a mid-pace rolling & crunching static boil which has some nice speaker rippling & crackling semi tones come off of it. At times it feels like jitters & crackles could suddenly join-up together & speed-up into all out overload, but they never do. It just keeps a steady, mid-pace & entrenched path through-out which over time becomes very hypnotic & additive as the ‘wall’s almost stuck groove really digs into your head. The whole track feels like your sliding slowly down a vast black slop of shadowy form & everywhere you look up, down, and from left to right is this juddering static fog that has more  pitch blackness in it than white light; and it just seems to be getting thick & more engulfing the longer the track goes on.

Another excellent example of pitch black, thick &  unmovable slice of  ‘wall’ making from this  Pennsylvanian based one-man project that has being active since 2006.
